Thunder - Grizzlies.

Last nights triple overtime game was the epotime of why the Mavericks will be in the finals.

The Thunder have a serious issue with offensive schemes. 
During the last 6 minutes of regulation Durant did not get a shot off.
He went 9 minutes before he finally fired up a 30foot 3 pointer.

This offense is really not set up for Durant, the screens are weak and make him drive into crowds of people and pull up to often.   Getting the ball at the top of the key is fine if the other playes spread away from him.
But with Perkins and Collison at the FT line or around the lane, Durant runs into double teams too often.

Westbrook is taking too many shots, but he really doesn't have a choice with this type of offense. 
Coaching matters.
